155 sold after about 12 hours!
Lot slower than I expected. There were a 1000 requests for this drop. Where are the remaining 850 people? lol
I have a question concerning the power input vs the usb input. It states for high power mode you would need to connect power in to both usb slots... would this not disable the playback of files above 24/96 resolution?
That being said, would the single power input (low power mode) be able to power higher impedance headphones? I am particularly interested in any thoughts regarding synergy with sennheiser hd700?
Any responses are greatly appreciated. I am interested as hell, but the issues regarding power concerns me.
These are both Planars, correct? So that means this unit should drive the ZMF x Vibro's without difficulty?
Thank you,

Question (hope it hasn't been answered already!)...
Do I read correctly that thing is USB Audio Class 2 Compliant, meaning that , among other things, it will work with Linux?
And a general comment, to do with this: maybe a rider like "We can't try every possible Linux ditro, that would be impossible," would be fine, but when, please, will all the manufacturers realise that there is more to computing life than MS and Apple! Apologies if already covered and I missed it --- but I did take a quick look through the manual.

Hi guys, happy user of the Centrance M8. Would anyone be able to tell me whether this is an upgrade or sidegrade in terms of sound and soundstage? Will be running my HE-400i and LCD-X from it.
Man o'man! Do I jump on this now or wait and grab one from the classifieds in a few weeks?
Great. And I just got my uber stack! So does anyone know how much better this is compared to the uber stack? Also can I use it as a pre amp for my active speakers?

Thanks Moe, kinda of feel the sound of m9xx based on your description. Have always wanted the Grace 920 but the analytical SQ by many had me hold back a little. Maybe now is the time.. Too many new product this year. I am happy to know I will be very broke soon...
If I'm only going to be listening to K553s or K7XXs with these from my laptop at work is this overkill?
And I'm still unclear if I can use my iPhone 6 as a source with this.
As I use a Linux OS on my computers, I asked for confirmation that the M9XX would be compatible without the need for special drivers. I did receive a rapid response to my question, and yes, it is plug-and-play compatible, confirmed by testing with a Ubuntu box. Soon my computer will have a new playmate!
Heard the Grace m9xx recently at a local event with moedawg. From just my phone and little battery the m9xx just sounded absolutely wonderful. Had my he500 plugged in along with moe's he1000 and both got to quite high volume which was super neato. The m9xx is without a doubt an excellent value at $499, shame for me that school is tad pricey otherwise I wouldn't mind getting the m9xx this drop.
Got the o2 at home and have had it for a year and if you are on the fence between the o2 or the grace I would definitely recommend spending the extra cash to get the grace!

Yup both were planars. Like project86 said, running in high power mode should drive the ZMF just fine. Another friend brought an Omni but I don't remember if we hooked it up to the m9xx.
Didn't listen on low power mode so not sure how well it would drive planars but I can imagine not well as planars love power.
